head shots and websites

Anastasia Photography is running a special on head shots right now if you book through November/ December... call 604.902.8111 or email info@anastasiaphotography.ca  for more information. Thank you. 

Do you cringe when business publications ask you for a headshot?

A good headshot used to be something only models and Fortune

500 CEOs had to worry about—but not anymore. With the advent

of digital networking tools and the blossoming of social media, all of a

sudden everyone needs a solid head shot—right now.

Whether you’re an aspiring actor looking to update your book or a

businessperson sick of your company running that awful fluorescent

shot of you from that tradeshow in Miami, Anastasia Photography is

here to help. We can get great headshots of you that are warm, inviting

and, above all, professional. You can use them whenever someone asks

you for a current photo.

Photography..Inspiration...White hot truth... and Danielle LaPorte in Vancouver

i am addicted... 

to all things beautiful, thoughtful, textured, layered, full of fabulous depths... to blogs full of colorful goodness... to books full of words that create lasting images... to grainy photos... to pretty paper... to laughter... to powerful women... to old wrinkled men who tell stories. 

and this muddled mess of things I like, who i am... what to buy and where to put it... all got figured out in my head when i read Style Statement... and then re read it... and then started to read the blog of one of the authors White Hot Truth... 

as life does.... that then led me to attend a Fire Starter workshop last year led by Danielle LaPorte. it helped me regroup... take control of my business... be confident and alive (I HIGHLY recommend this to any of you out there at whatever level you are at)... and that led... 

to me photographing Danielle... which was an honor... 

to photograph someone whom i admire and look up to in business... the author of a book I adore... 

hmmmm.... not too many words... just inspired. 

as a mentor she encourages me to succeed.... to be confident and to fly towards my dreams... and then as a client... she still manages to reinstate all of that... she takes me from the little box i can easily build around me... and she places me right outside of it... 

in this session... i learned... i experimented... and i found more passion for this art of photography.

and then just a little playing with some of the very beautiful pieces found about in her home. i was struck by the intentionality of the simplicity in her home. 

okay.... i have been photographing a lot of ladies lately!!

here are some new head shots for this actress... 

we had a dark day, but somehow managed these lovely photos... 

i love them!

vancouver and gorgeous women...

Yesterday i travelled down to vancouver with my gorgeous friend Abbie to see my gorgeous friend Julie... she needed a serious pick me up... so cupcakes from here and flowers... and coffee... and chit chat about snow white were on the agenda... Vancouver was amazing... all the flowers are in bloom and it is SO GREEN....

''come on whistler... you can do it.... go spring go!!'' LOL

I left my boys with three other Gorgeous women Carolyn, Georgia and Maggie for 9 hours!!!!!!!! (thanks carolyn!)

Then Abbie and I went to meet two more gorgeous women for a photoshoot... I was worried about light so Abbie came with me to help with my lighting.... and Miss Jennifer Halley had her make up artist with her...

We hit the streets of Vancouver chasing light and color.... and we got these....

Jennifer... you are stunning... on the inside and out and i loved working with you.

So to the Gorgeous women of yesterday thanks... thanks for the laughs... and for my estrogen hit.... let's not forget all the testosterone I live with on my daily basis!! It was just what I needed!

new stuff

one of the great things about being booked for the year with families is that it allows me to be able to take on some new projects.

so.... we just photographed a country musician... we have another CD cover coming next week.... and we are entering into model head shots....
we also have a few clothing companies within the next year...

i am excited about all of this. To learn and be stretched... to think outside the box... to be challenged.

here are a few of the country!! xoxo

a few different things from me!!

sometimes i do party's... capture the event and then post the photos on line and the guests can order...
i have done baby showers and goodbye party's and birthday party's... i enjoy it a lot... and always get to meet so many people and eat yummy food!!

I also do head shots.... these sweet and cute... and handsome and GOOD GOOD boys are entering into some casting calls... they were so good for the sessions!!

and sometimes i dogsled!! LOL not really an avid dogsledder but seriously it was SO SO fun!! This family asked me to come along... and i SO enjoyed it!!

xoxo... tomorrow we are off for a secret destination wedding... ohhhh... don't you all want to know!! LOL
its a secret!!! but i will unveil it soon!!

Cheers!

me... corporate.

I had the honor of photographing the 'Thornhill Real Estate Group' last week. It was my first time at corporate photography and I really loved it... I hope that 2008 holds many more similar opportunities.

Here is a little sneak peek.

a story of hope...

let me introduce my friend Heidi.... i took these photos for her to use on her new website...
and i would encourage you to check her site... to read her story and to watch the two short clips...
Also to consider Heidi if you have ANY need for a motivational speaker...

www.heidicave.com

i also just want to add a couple words.... (i know... shocking!)
I have had the opportunity and honor to meet many amazing people in my life... people with grand success... miracle stories... people with genius minds and compassionate hearts. Heidi is one of those people... she overcame a great tragedy... she is strong, she is lovely.... she is an inspiration. I could go on and on about the attributes of my friend... but the word that always comes to my mind with her... while we are chatting, or drinking coffee... when we are laughing... as we play with our kids... the word... is beauty. Heidi you are SO beautiful to me. Everything about you... the way you are a mom... the way you are a friend... physically, and within your spirit. You are; as cheesy as it sounds simply a shining star to me!! You never complain, or grumble... you always have something positive to say... it continually blows my mind that people meet you and do not even know what you have endured... because you do not carry a story of loss but of hope. You are an inspiration to me... and a friend i look forward to getting to know more and more in the years to come.
thank you heidi... for your story of hope in my life.

its the hair!!

well... the hair and the fact that he is darling in every other way as well... sweet... fun and one fabulous soccer player!!!
